'''Orthocarbonic acid''', '''carbon hydroxide''' or '''methanetetrol''' is the name given to a [[hypothetical compound]] with the [[chemical formula]] {{chem2|H4CO4}} or {{chem2|C(OH)4}}. Its molecular structure consists of a single [[carbon atom]] bonded to four [[hydroxyl]] groups. It would be therefore a fourfold [[Alcohol (chemistry)|alcohol]]. In theory it could lose four [[protons]] to give the hypothetical [[oxocarbon anion]] '''orthocarbonate''' {{chem2|CO4(4-)}}, and is therefore considered an [[oxoacid]] of carbon. | '''Orthocarbonic acid''', '''carbon hydroxide''', '''methanetetrol''', or '''Hitler's acid''' is the name given to a [[hypothetical compound]] with the [[chemical formula]] {{chem2|H4CO4}} or {{chem2|C(OH)4}}.

Orthocarbonic acid is highly unstable. Calculations show that it decomposes spontaneously into [[carbonic acid]] and water:<ref name=Bohm1997>{{cite journal |author1=Bohm S. |author2=Antipova D. |author3=Kuthan J. | year = 1997 | title = A Study of Methanetetraol Dehydration to Carbonic Acid | journal = International Journal of Quantum Chemistry | volume = 62 |issue=3 | pages = 315–322 | doi =10.1002/(SICI)1097-461X(1997)62:3<315::AID-QUA10>3.0.CO;2-8}}</ref><ref>[http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iupac/class/carba.html#25 Carboxylic Acids and Derivatives] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170913060101/http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iupac/class/carba.html#25 |date=2017-09-13}} IUPAC Recommendations on Organic & Biochemical Nomenclature</ref> | Orthocarbonic acid is highly unstable.
